Saison Théâtre à Pau - L'affaire de la rue de Lourcine

Paris, 1857. Lenglumé wakes up with a massive hangover next to Mistingue, whom he met the night before at a dinner party. Neither of them remembers a thing.

Then the clues start piling up: hair in his pocket, a newspaper reporting a murder on Rue de Lourcine, a coal seller found dead. What if it was them? Impossible! And yet...

Panicked, these two perfectly respectable men, bourgeois through and through, try to hide the evidence, evade the police, and make all compromising traces disappear... But the more their fear grows, the more the situation spirals out of control, leading to a series of absurd misunderstandings with servants and neighbors.
